A Free E-Book for You

I had a great idea today.


To make a little E-Book, with some of my favourite and most popular crochet tutorials in it for you!!!




It was one of those ideas that couldn't wait.  I had to get it done pronto or it would become one of those ideas that kind of dissolved and turned into a hazy memory if left, one that never got completed, and so, while the idea was fresh and exciting, I put it all together.


I decided to call it, quite simply 'Colourful Crochet'.  Because that is exactly what it is.

This little E-Book is completely FREE, available to read online (click on the pages to enlarge the text) or to print off at home to keep.  I've chosen the following patterns which I know alot of people have enjoyed using:


Garden Flower Mobile Phone Pocket




Popcorn Flower Granny Squares




Teeny Tiny Heart Bunting




Chunky Crocheted Bowl




Toasty Mitts Arm Warmers




So, after oodles of writing and outpourings of excitement and creative energy; here it is!  You will also be able to find this book on the Free Goodies and Tutorials page (tab above) and in the sidebar.


-
Please feel free to spread the Crochet Love and share this with your friends and family.  I'd love to think this little book is going to travel far and wide and I do hope you enjoy it!


Next time:  Seaside sketches and paintings!


Mucho love

  31. Thankyou for your generosity Julia.

    I understand what you mean about having to do something straight away, before the idea just evaporates out the window..

    There's a lot of that goes on here ;)

    Cheers
